Oh Lord, Help us all no this is not a typo or joke. In fact our very own Gronar is featured on TriXies Gamer Spotlight on Xbox.com. Hey we love to bust on Jim but he is always around for us and others. So we want to congratulate him on this honor. Many of our members may also want to read this to learn more about Gronar our resident Halo fan boy you maybe surprised at what he shares. Jim has also helped serve the Xbox Live Community by being an Xbox Ambassador for over a year now. I just wanted to take a few minutes and post this since it is a real honor. I still wonder if our phone call to TriXie on our last podcast had anything to do with the choice. Just Joking Jim congrats from the entire staff and members here at Xboxsolution.com.
